Insect α-Amylases and Their Application in Pest Management
Molecules, 2023 Amylase is an indispensable hydrolase in insect growth and development. Its varied enzymatic parameters cause insects to have strong stress resistance. Amylase gene replication is a very common phenomenon in insects, and different copies of amylase genes

Native to designed: microbial α-amylases for industrial applications [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background α-amylases catalyze the endo-hydrolysis of α-1,4-D-glycosidic bonds in starch into smaller moieties. While industrial processes are usually performed at harsh conditions, α-amylases from mainly the bacteria, fungi and yeasts are preferred for ...

Biochemical and structural characterization of AmyY from Alkalimonas sp. NCh-2 reveals a class of metal-free α-amylases in glycoside hydrolase family 13 [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiologyα-Amylases (EC 3.2.1.1) are among the most important industrial enzymes in starch saccharification, detergent, paper, and textile industries. Canonical α-amylases typically contain Ca2+ in their structure, which is not directly involved in catalysis but ...
